1. Obtain the form: You can download the 2012 Form 1040 extension from the official website of the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) or request a physical copy by mail.
2. Provide your personal information: Fill in your name, address, and Social Security Number at the top of the form. Make sure to double-check the accuracy of the information provided.
